Over you (Rules Breaker Series 2)

Chapter 2

Majbritt

DUMATING ako sa bahay bandang ala-syiete na ng gabi. I was expecting my Dad at home, mad face because I go home late. The typical Dad, protective, serious, and terror. But I got home just like that. Our empty house welcomed me. Nakalimutan kong madalas nga pala akong mag isa sa bahay.

I opened our gate and enter our home sweet home. Oh how sarcastic is that.

Agad akong dumiretso sa aking kwarto at saka naligo. I ordered my dinner in Mcdonald's as well as my midnight snacks for later. Hindi kasi ako iyong tipong antukin. I was up all the time, overthinking makes me up usually.

Ilang oras din ang lumipas at namalayan kong eleven thirty na pala ng gabi. Narinig ko na din ang pag dating ni Dad. Pero hindi na ako lumabas pa at hinayaan na lamang siya. Once he noticed my school shoes, he knew I'm home already. 'Ni hindi nya nga siguro alam kung anong oras na ako umuwi o kung kumain na ba ako, kung kamusta ba ang araw ko o kung kamusta ba ako.

MAAGA akong nag handa papasok dahil hindi ako naka tulog ng maayos kagabi. I didn't receive any message from Russel. But I do message him. Pero walang reply, 'ni hanihoy, wala.

To: Love

How are you? Are you still up?

I was hoping he'll reply, kahit like zone. Pero wala eh. It took hours para lang sumuko na umasang maibibigyan niya pa ako ng oras. Ever since he got into college naging ganiyan na siya. He used to spoiled me with his time and efforts. There I felt that I have someone to relay on. That at least I have Russel and my Friends. Even though I don't have my self, even though I was secretly hoping that one day, my family will be there for me too.

Our house has second floor kaya't kinailangan ko pang bumaba. I'm used not eating in the morning since wala namang nag hahanda ng pag kain. Hindi din naman ako ipag luluto ni Dad o kahit i-order sa labas.

Laking gulat ko ng may maamoy na pagkain ng bumaba ako. It's like fried rice, bacon, hotdog and egg. May naamoy din akong aroma ng kape. Out of curiosity, I immediately walked towards our kitchen and saw this girl wearing an apron while flipping the egg on the pan.

"E-excuse me?" I caught her attention. She quickly turn around. She also look shocked seeing me. Agad niya ring hininaan ang apoy at awkward na ngumiti sakin.

I think she's around thirty, medyo matangkad at hindi ganoon kaputi. Malinis siyang tignan at maganda.

"Good morning po," She greeted me. Before I could greet her back, I saw my Dad stepping inside all the way from our backyard's door. Sa tingin ko ay may kinausap sa telepono.

"Oh, Maj. Gising ka na pala. You're up so early, huh?" He commented. Kailan niya pa napansing late akong pumapasok para masabi niyang masyado akong maaga ngayon?

"Good morning, D-Dad." I awkwardly greeted him before glancing at the stranger.

"Oh, about her." Dad started. Bago pa man siya mag patuloy ay naupo na muna siya at sumimsim sa kanyang kape. "She's Sandra, our maid."

Bahagya akong nagulat kasabay ng mahina kong pag tawa. I saw them slightly shook by that. "Are you kidding me?"

"Maj, your attitude." suway ni Dad.

"Oh, my bad. By the way, nice to meet you po." I politely offer my hand. Agad niya namang tinanggap at ngumiti.

"Nice to meet you too po, Maam." Aniya na lalo pang dumagdag sa aking tawa.

"It's Maj. Don't call me with such." sabi ko at muling tumawa. "Welcome to our home sweet home. By the way, I'll be going now." paalam ko at saka aalis na sana.
